1.2012 (You Must Be Upgraded)

(You must be upgraded, you must be upgraded)
(You must be upgraded...)

Well it's 2012, think we're going to hell (you must be upgraded)
Put me under your acid spell (you must be upgraded)
Because I want my mind to be completely toast (you must be
upgraded)
When the tides destroy the whole West Coast (you must be
upgraded)
Because I want my ass to be jumping, too (you must be upgraded)
Oh, my, my and a boo, hoo, hoo

(You must be upgraded, you must be upgraded)
(You must be upgraded, you must be upgraded)

So with the world ablaze, I'm in an acid haze (you must be
upgraded)
And though the end is near, I have no fear (you must be
upgraded)
So the deal for me is not the same (you must be upgraded)
I'm having fun, while you're having pain

2012, the morning to the New Year's light
Just save yourself, oh I'll meet you on the other side
Is this the ending, they could have called the fall of man?
Is this the ending, or are we gonna start again?
Are we gonna start again? Are we gonna start again?
Are we gonna start again? Are we gonna start again?
Are we gonna start again? Are we gonna start again?
Are we gonna start again? Are we gonna start

(You must be upgraded) Oh, my, my and a boo, hoo, hoo
(You must be upgraded) Oh, my, my and a boo, hoo, hoo
(You must be upgraded) Oh, my, my and a boo, hoo, hoo
(You must be upgraded)


2.Ashes in the Air

You and me
Were both so fucked up
You're fucked up in the good way
And I'm fucked up in the bad
You and me
We thought we were so smart
We thought we could outrun them
But they had robot dogs
You and me
We're both in the same hole
But you dream of ways of leaving
And I get used to the cold

You and me
We heard a sudden thud
But you ran in to save them
And I didn't give a fuck
You and me
We heard a sudden tux
But you ran into to save them
And I didn't give a fuck
You and me
Our egos made from fires
Burning all of our flesh off
Till we're skeletons dueling with wires

You and me
Saw the light of the ship get crossed
But it was up above us
It left us where we was
You and me
Have learned that love is true
If you ask me how I know it
I'll never lie to you


3.Helping the Retarded to Find God

We both hold our hands to our eyes
Blocking out the sun
Watching as the plane flew by
Ignoring everyone

We can hear them laughing at us
Judging all the time
I wish I could be like you
You don't pay them no mind

And I stood there with you
Trying not to cry
You don't pay them no mind

We could both just walk away
Leaving it alone
But it's here, we want to stay
Where else would we go?

And I stood there with you
Trying not to cry
You don't pay them no mind

Oh, I am trying to know you
Oh, I am trying to know you
Oh, I am trying to know you
Oh, I am trying to know you
Oh, I am trying to know you
Oh, I am trying to know you
Oh, I am trying to know you
Oh, I am


4.Supermoon Made Me Want to Pee

One, two...

Coming up, coming up, coming up, coming up, coming up
Coming up, coming up, coming up, coming up, coming up

Coming up, coming up, coming up, coming up, coming up


5.Children of the Moon

One, two, one...

We still believe in love, we still believe in truth
We know we still live and then die 'cause we still believe in
you
Yeah, we still believe in the power of love, we're doing what we
can
We're only gonna get some cosmic love and we all can jump inside
Riding in our horses, holding a balloon
We know that it's the future, so let's go for the moon

We're children of the moon, we're children of the moon
We're children of the moon

I wonder what they'll do when you tell them you've gone to the
moon
I wonder what they'll do when you tell them you've gone to the
moon
I wonder what they'll do when you tell them you've gone to the
moon
I wonder what they'll do when you tell them you've gone to the
moon
I wonder what they'll do when you tell them you've gone to the
moon


6.That Ain't My Trip

You always want to shave my balls that ain't my trip
You scream your screechy bat blue calls that ain't my trip
You like to drive your car too fast that ain't my trip
I can't communicate with bats that ain't my trip

You tell me you like gangs and guns that ain't my trip
You say you'd like to rule the world that ain't my trip
You say you'd like to smash their skulls that ain't my trip
You say you want more power than love that ain't my trip


7.You, Man? Human???

Hey everybody, I'm doing alright
I'm driving around in the middle of the night on a silver cloud
You can touch me if you want, it's obligatory, it's allowed
C'mon get in, everybody climb in
Hey, get in 'cause all we do around here
Is win, win, win, win, swimming and winning
Swimming, swimming, swimming, swimming
The swimming pool smells of chlorine
The gardener humanizes the hedge with shears
The poolhouse is obscene, no one has used the pool in years
Climb in, climb in, you can touch me if you want
And you will win, win, win, you have nothing to lose
You've got everything to win, you got nothing to lose

You, man? Human??? You, man? Human???
You, man? Human??? You, man? Human???
You, man? Human??? You, man? Human???
You, man? Human??? You, man? Human???
You, man? Human??? You, man? Human???
You, man? Human??? You, man? Human???
You, man? Human??? You, man? Human???
You, man? Human??? You, man? Human???

I'll take you down to Basin Street, they got crow in their shoes
A motel in Memphis, see the King of the Blues
A South Dakota trail among the buffalo and Sioux
You can touch me if you want, c'mon get in
Win, win, win in my silver cloud
You can touch me if you want, it's statutory, it's allowed
I'd keep the windows rolled up if I was you
What, with all the buffalo and Sioux
And the lock's all down in the middle of the night in my silver
cloud
Think there's a swimming pool smells like bleach
The driver has dropped something down the back of his seat
No one has driven this car for years
You can touch me if you want but I've not been sheared

I'm not human, you, man? I'm not human, you, man?
I've not been a man for years, I ain't been human for years

But you can touch me if you can't, you can touch me if you can't
Can touch me if you can't 'cause I'm alright


8.I'm Working at NASA on Acid

I'm working here and as I press the wrong button they'll
disappear
I'm walking here and as I crush the ants below me I'm full of
fear
Oh, can we ever find out? I'll ask the mountain, oh, can he tell
me?
I'll ask the sky, does it know why? Why?
Why, why, why, why, why... Why, why, why, why, why...
Why, why, why, why, why... (One, two, three, four...)

Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why...
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why...
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why...
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why...
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why...
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why...
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why...
Why, why, why, why, why, why... (One, two, three, four...)

I man the controls and I'm trying to control
Oh, something that can never be controlled, oh
Oh, why is anything here
I'll ask the insect how does he fly, I'll ask the insect again
Oh, does he feel pain when he dies, when he dies
When he dies, when he dies, when he dies, when he dies
When he dies, when he dies


9.Do It!

Oh, do it! Do it! Do it! Oh-oh! Do it!
Do it! Do it! Do it! Oh-oh! Do it!
Do it! Oh, do it! Do it! Oh-oh! Do it!
Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it!

Do it! Oh, do it! Do it! Do it!
Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it!

Oh, do it! Do it! Do it! Do it!

Oh, do it! Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it!
Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it!
Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it!


10.The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were gifts
You gave to the dark and the endless skies

To the dark and the endless skies
To the dark and the endless skies
To the dark and the endless skies
To the dark and the endless skies

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hands
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird

That was then at my, that was then at my command, my love
That was then at my, that was then at my command

The first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth

And last 'til the end of time, my love
And last 'til the end of time
And last 'til the end of time
And last 'til the end of time

The first time ever I saw your face
Your face, your face, your face
Your face, your face, your face, your face
Your face, your face, your face, your face
Your face, your face, your face, your face
Your face, your face, your face, your face


11.Girl, You're So Weird

Girl, you're so weird, your pain and your fear
Has paralyzed your mind, I wish you'd get high

You're so tight, you're always thinking right
Tonight, when it's late, you should smile, masturbate

So, girl, you and me can watch each other pee
With holographic shirts we'll shine under blacklights
Lights, lights, lights, lights, lights, lights
Lights, lights, lights, lights, lights, lights
Lights, lights, lights, lights, lights, lights
Lights, lights, lights, lights, lights, lights
Lights, lights, lights, lights, lights, lights
Lights, lights, lights, lights, lights, lights
Lights, lights, lights, lights, lights, lights, lights


12.Tasered and Maced

Well it's a funny thing when your friends are chasing you
Like you hit one of them in the balls and stuff like that
Most times they'll stop chasing you after a while when they
can't catch you

But cops don't do that
and, and, and I found out the hard way
But, but they proceeded to tell an old lady to go back inside
And right when they were fixing to go through the door
They fold the door down and slam me on the ground
Slam me, slam me

Needless to say the crowd went crazy
And so did the cops, they were in a frenzy
They came in and started macing everybody
About that time, macing
Bombing, macing, whatever you need to bug
you the bugs all night, your house
So he comes through the conference room
With coffee on the back
Without even thinking
And my primal rage stage
I was inebriated with alcohol,
That was it, that was it
And young, young vitality, vitality
And I don't even think, and I grab the cop from behind
And he, and he was like what are you doing man?
And he started to mace me right in my face
Not even in the foot, away from my face
So I stop thinking, I just take off running
I was actually high-stepping, it was like
My buddy said he saw me, and I was like he saw some
Long legged creature just like
He took a base high stepping
Going down sixth street, stop tinkling
So I stopped and turned around

Well it's a funny thing when your friends are chasing you
Like you hit one of them in the balls and stuff like that
Most times they'll stop chasing you after a while when they
can't catch you
But cops don't do that, and, and, and I found out the hard way
Because they caught me, because they caught me
Fantastic but I can't catch them
Needless to say i turned around
And ?roceeded to take me to the ground
And taser me, taser me, taser me
Tasered and maced pretty good
